Bassface

After a successful collaboration with Overview Music in March, Bassface returns to Simplon in May to test the lowest frequencies of the sound system once more. This time around, with Monty, Bredren, Felov b2b Yannons and Kietsune, they bring another heavily packed line-up!

Monty

A true all-rounder in bass music and yet another peak product of the drum&bass scene in Toulouse. Monty has been at the top of Bassface’s wish list for years and it’s finally time to bring him to Groningen. One of the most progressive and diverse acts in the world of (drum&)bass really needs no introduction, but since we are so excited we will do it anyway.

Monty brings a famous combination of soulful, funky drum&bass with harder techy drum&bass and deep and heavy dubstep with influences of grime. A golden combination that finds not only the Bassface playlist, but also major labels like 1985 Music, Critical Music and VISION and now finally the dance floor of Simplon!

Bredren

Few artists can make drum&bass sound so good with so few elements; Bredren are therefore known as the kings of deep, minimal drum&bass. They take us into the darkness and strike exactly the chord we love at Bassface. Their signature crispy and snappy drums combined with hypnotic basslines know no better place to be listened to than a big sound system and that is exactly what we are so looking forward to for May 10th!

Bredren also has a list of releases on prominent labels, for example 1985 Music, Dispatch Recordings, Flexout and most recently even Metalheadz.

Felov b2b Yannons

With both having a history on UK label Transparent Audio and a penchant for deep drum&bass, a successful collaboration is easily made. A few years ago, they already performed together on Bassface but after both having done several successful releases in recent years, it is now about time to see the two talents of the Dutch drum&bass scene on stage together again.

Kietsune

Groningen-based producer and DJ Kietsune has already shown her versatility at many venues in our city and we look forward to adding Simplon to the list! After events like SubCulture and Velocity, she is now coming to open our next edition of Bassface.
